Leavenworth Recycling Center

The Recycling Center in Leavenworth, WA, located at 216 14th Street, offers services for both residential and commercial waste disposal. Operated in partnership with Waste Loop, the center is open year-round with varying seasonal hours. Waste Management handles curbside collection for residents, while the Refuse Division manages commercial solid waste transportation to local landfills. The single-stream recycling program, excluding glass, requires clean, empty, and dry recyclables like paper, plastic bottles, and metal cans. Corrugated cardboard is accepted at the center, and commercial cardboard recycling is available. Residents can also dispose of clean yard waste, including leaves, pine needles, and tree limbs cut into bundles, but furniture, appliances, dirt, rocks, and large limbs are prohibited. Notably, Leavenworth falls within the Apple Maggot Quarantine area, restricting the transfer of homegrown fruit and yard waste. Failure to comply may result in garbage collection refusal until the items are removed. Proof of residence is required for yard waste disposal, and a list of accepted materials is provided on the website.
